One fine morning
I like to start like this but what to do the placement results always comes out in the night.
Yes I too got into my dream Company, a major IT Service Giant of the World.
I was feeling at the top of the world, on cloud nine.
#professional_life #into_my_dream_job #city_life_style #independent #on_my_own #a_new_step #happy_me
These were the Tags I used for the tweets for announcing my next status as an IT Engineer.
After Placement, (konjam over aah dhaan poromo povom) I never attended the classes then after.
I reached the City, my dream was realized to lead a city life.
Everybody were busy catching the autos and cabs. There a old lady remained to cross the road with heavy luggage. She asked for help, nobody did everybody were rushing but I helped her to cross the road along with her luggage she left without saying a thanks. True she was the first truth of the city I ever faced.
The First Day at office
I entered the office with a lot of dreams but I have to face the reality.
It was 8AM in the morning I was dressed in full formal, after a long time. To say the truth next to placement I was in formals only on that day, sorry it is from that day.
I was entering the office like Sanjay Ramasamy of Ghajini but one hand stopped me. He was the Security Guard of the office. He asked for the ID or any kind of proof.
I was shocked because I am used to the habit of ignoring the watchman of my college hostel. Even I used to fight with them when I’m late or I don’t have the College ID card.
But here I showed my Universal Indian Proof AADHAAR (Modi Ji Ki Jai Ho), the security guard cross checked my face with the face in the AADHAAR card. With a sense of doubt and confusion he asked me whether its mine. My Brain voice shouted “Dei Naan Thaan da, ulla vidra sodhikkadheenga da ennaya”
I got little disappointed after this. Then I proceeded to next formalities with thoughts about whether I will be a tester or a developer or what will be my role. But when I approached the respective person, he listened to me patiently and asked me a copy of my passport size photo for the next formalities(Sathiya Sodhanai)
Then I went for lunch with thousands of Expectation but I received 250grams of rice with some sabjis that were not even edible.(Murugaaa…!)
On that point of time I re-winded my life to a time where I used to fight with my mess warden for not providing me food at 3PM even though the mess was closed at 2PM(Payasam engada..!)
After Lunch with heavy expectation I entered the hall along with the other joinees. I heard some noises, noises consisted of all possible Indian Languages like Hindi, Malayalam and Telugu
At that point of time I realized I’m part of a National Corporate. Life without subtitles is hard to survive here.
Also Memories flashed through when I mocked at people who spoke in English in my college(dhoda peteru, enna scenaaa..!).
When the session was over, I felt like a kid leaving from School. I thought of having tea and reached the tea spot.
I was shocked, there were already 200 people waiting for tea. (Holy carp..!)
When I came out of the office there were too much new strange things waiting for me.
A Girl with Cigar asked me for a lighter. I was shocked again and I was actually getting tired of being shocked.
When I reached my place I prepared myself to sleep. But I was unaware that it was a long sleepless night similar to my college life. The Only difference is I made memories in college. But now I’m spending the sleepless nights with the help of recalling those memories.
But at the end of the day I realized I will lose my own identity in search of an new identity. This new Identity will kill all my feelings and make me a robot.
To finish off, I realized
a director handles the client request
a musician prepares the requirements for a code
a photographer develops a code
a author tests the same code
All the above people are called as Engineers..!
